"Still a huge hit with the fans, Lillee continued his international career until famously retiring along with Greg Chappell and Rod Marsh after the Sydney Test match against Pakistan in January 1984; many consider this 'triple retirement' had an adverse impact on the Australian national team as their performances soon slumped."

Whilest all 3 did retire from TEST cricket after that match I'm pretty sure Marsh continued on play out the World Series Cup of that Summer whereas Chappell and Lillee did not.

  • Interesting, but I'm not sure it's particularly relevant to an article on Dennis Lillee. In adding the information about the possible adverse impact on the national team, I did so as more an indication that it happened. Certainly an article on the impacts of their retirements would be very interesting...--Cory 16:32, 31 May 2005 (UTC)
